Migration is a roadblock to moving forward with your SharePoint strategy. Migration is phased, iterative, and error prone. But migration itself is not the goal – an optimized and user-friendly environment is your goal. Beyond the Microsoft-provided overview of how to plan for an upgrade and migration, there is a lot of room for error. This presentation outlines 11 critical strategies for migration planning that no project should move forward without. (based on article published in ECM Connections 11/2/2010) Attendees will walk away with a detailed action plan for their migrations to SharePoint 2010.

What’s New in SharePoint 2013 for IT ProsSPC Adriatics
Speaker: Michael Noel;
At first glance, the most significant changes in Microsoft’s newest version of SharePoint appear to be visual ones, as Microsoft revamped the overall User Interface and updated it to be more easily usable on tablet based devices. Under the surface, however, Microsoft has also made some significant changes to the back-end infrastructure capabilities of the platform, improving tools and adding new capabilities. This session focuses on those back-end infrastructure and administrative changes that are inherent in SharePoint 2013, and concentrates on how IT Pros can prepare for the addition of SharePoint 2013 into their environments. Improvements such as a revamped User Profile Sync offering, integrated FAST Search capabilities, advanced authentication options, changes to Service Applications, and new data tier high availability and business intelligence options are discussed.

11 Strategic Considerations for SharePoint Migration, presentation given by Christian Buckley at the SharePoint Best Practices Conference in August 2010, Reston VA
11 Strategic Considerations for SharePoint MigrationsChristian Buckley
Presentation given 9/11/2010 at SharePoint Saturday East Bay in San Ramon, California.
The majority of a migration effort has nothing to do with the actual technical move of content and bits, but is a planning activity. This presentation walks through 11 areas of focus, sharing best practices.
SharePoint migrations rarely turn out as you plan them. They are sometimes risky and too often take longer than planned. Over the last 10 years of migrating from SharePoint 2003, 2007, 2010 to the latest versions of SharePoint/Office 365 we’ve seen a consistent theme -- organizations underestimate the complexity and level of effort required for a successful, smooth migration.
Whether you are planning to complete your own migration, or engaging a vendor to assist, this webinar will discuss precautions you can take to avoid the slippery slope experienced in SharePoint migrations.

SharePoint Requires Technical & Content Governance - How to Get StartedChristian Buckley
Slides shared during a webinar with myself and Jeff Shuey, Director of Strategic Alliances at Gimmal, in which we discuss some of the differences between technical and content governance, providing guidance on how an organization should plan for corporate, IT, SharePoint, and content governance activities.
SharePoint Migration - To Be Or Not To Be ‘In The Cloud’ Adam Levithan
With Microsoft's release of SharePoint 2013 and Office 365, organizations are still unsure which direction to turn when faced with a migration decision. Is the cloud the right fit for my organization? Is traditional, on-premise the best bet? How about the hybrid approach?
The fervor that existed in organizations to migrate quickly from SharePoint 2003 to 2007, and 2007 to 2010 has not been repeated for SharePoint 2013. While there are significant technological and user-focused advances in SharePoint 2013, it has faced rapid changes in the expectations of organizations to implement digital workplaces that its predecessors did not experience. These changes include the confusion and competition between Office 365, Yammer and other systems being introduced as options, even when hosting options have already been chosen.
Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of SharePoint in the cloud, on-premise and hybrid. This webinar will help you better understand the available options and how they fit in creating a real-time, digital workplace within your organization.
•The benefits of each migration option, Office 365, on-premise and hybrid
•Top reasons for moving to the cloud
•The cost of migration alternatives (on-Premise, Hosted, Office 365)
•How to build a value statement for your migration
As we all know, more and more organizations are starting to question “Do we or do we not implement Office 365?”. However, as these discussions are taking place; governance is rarely addressed or considered. The main reason is that the majority believe that once they have implemented governance that they are done; unless there is an update such as a server name change or an employee change (such as a departure or addition). During the initial planning around governance it is likely that there were discussions around auditing of the governance document and potential quarterly reviews to ensure that the document is up to date and still fits the business. However, it is common to forget that after that fact; even though it is documented “within the governance document”.
Governance becomes even more important with Office 365 just because its cloud based and ever changing with new and deprecated features on a pretty regular basis. This means all of the content, backup, recovery, etc. are all handled by Microsoft and you have virtually no control over it (Can you say MAJOR SLA impact?). In this session we will review the areas of concern and how they can be addressed within the governance document, the importance of reviewing the document frequently; and ways to make the information available to your internal SharePoint Community. In addition, we will review the features of Office 365 that will have a major impact on SharePoint and Office Apps. We will review each of these applications and the areas of importance that should be addressed in the governance document, as well as why each of them are important.

Tips in migrating to SharePoint 2016 or O365, to avoid a migration headacheMike Maadarani
Migrating data into any platform is a difficult task, especially if you are moving into Office 365. If you are migrating to either SharePoint On-Premise or O365, you will need preparation, good planning, and detailed execution activities are keys to avoid migration nightmare.
This session will help you learn a methodology, adopted based on many previous migration, to help you deliver a successful migration project with happy users. We will learn the steps you need in your pre-migration analysis, migration checklists, post migration support, and any issues you might face during and after completing the migration efforts.

Hybrid scenarios between SharePoint Server 2013 and O365 take a number of guises including search and business connectivity capabilities. All hybrid scenarios require a base identity configuration on which the hybrid workload can be configured. Hybrid workloads can operate in what are known as inbound and outbound directions. Outbound is considered the simplest configuration with inbound being complicated by the addition of extra on premises infrastructure and the perception of it being a difficult task to configure correctly. In this session we want to dispel that myth and show how configuring the identity infrastructure including dirsync with password synchronization to support outbound and inbound hybrid search between SharePoint 2013 server and O365 can be done. Configuration of Windows 2012 R2 Web Application Proxy (WAP) Server to support inbound hybrid authentication will be a key component of this session as well as the use of Windows Azure for the on premises SharePoint roles.
Search is one of the major enhancements in SharePoint 2013 after adopting FAST server features. You can utilise search in a lot of other scenarios not related to direct search that we used to. In this webinar I am going to explore the new features in SharePoint search and how to use it for content publishing.
SharePoint has been around since 2003 but gained a large interest and popularity by businesses all over the globe after the 2007 release. Starting out as mainly a document management and team site solution, after the 2010 release a lot has changed. SharePoint gained a stronger Search engine, improved Social features, Business Intelligence capabilities and was even extendable with Line of Business Systems. Unfortunately time didn't stand still and the technology sector underwent heavy changes with the rise of smart phones and tablets. Customers' expectations weren't always met with SharePoint 2007 and 2010. SharePoint was waiting for a necessary evolution. This resulted in SharePoint 2013. During this session, we take a look at the evolution of SharePoint with a focus at apps and mobile, Social and the Cloud
Key features to move Yammer users from casual to power users. Yammer adoption continues to rapidly expand, but like any other collaboration platform, most people understand the basic capabilities yet fail to dig down into the "power user" capabilities that help any user to move from causal use to high-productivity. This session walks through 15 tips and tricks to help participants get the most out of the Yammer platform.
Work Management Service provides a functionality to aggregate tasks to a central location on SharePoint Server. Users have a possibility to view and track their to-dos and tasks, which can come from SharePoint lists, Project Server or Microsoft Exchange.
This development-oriented webinar will show how to leverage Work Management Service API, to add even more features and fine tuning to the system. On the end, it will be shown how to sync it all with mobile devices.
That way, Work Management Service can become a powerful tool for employees to manage and consolidate tasks from various sources, and to have an easy access and overview over their tasks, through their MySite environment and/or mobile devices.
In this webinar we will discuss using PowerShell to extract configuration information from SharePoint to store in XML to include reading and writing XML and some example use cases.
Who is to blame? SharePoint? SQL? For many admins, SharePoint is the biggest and most important SQL Server application they manage. But how? In this session, we give an overview on planning, installation and management of SQL Server for SharePoint. We also explain how SharePoint uses SQL and cover best practices from the SharePoint and SQL CAT teams.
I think we can all agree that any technology deployment works best when it is aligned with real business value. This has been demonstrated by the willingness of companies to invest millions in ERP systems, recognizing that although the implementation and configuration of an ERP is a painful process, the outcome of having better inventory, supply chain and financial management is a necessity for running a business. Similarly, business have come to rely on the vast array of desktop software, most notably MS-Office, as genuine productivity tools.
But what about the gulf in the middle, between the enterprise and the desktop? What about department level workflow, document sharing, social networking in the workplace, and automated services for internal employees? Is there genuine business value there? And is SharePoint 2010 really the first “ready for primetime” platform that can deliver on the third leg of an enterprise IT strategy, bridging the gulf between the enterprise and the desktop?
This presentation will explore the alignment between the capabilities of SharePoint 2010 and real business needs for team, department and enterprise –level collaboration, use real world examples of best practices for developing a roadmap for success, and explore the non-technical factors that have the potential to make or break the success of collaboration within your enterprise.
When implementing SharePoint you might think that you are adding just another technology to your heterogeneous IT environment. But after a while you realize, that users are doing things with SharePoint that you did not expect them to do. This talk dives into the dynamics of adopting SharePoint as a platform, and shows you a how to setup an operational governance practice using a structured governance framework.
State machines are an approach to workflow design that allows a lot more flexibility, a lot more readability, and a lot less chaos to almost any process model. In a very real sense, almost all workflows would benefit from being redesigned as state machines, but certain use cases fit this design model particularly well. This session will explain what state machines are, why to use them, how to create them in Visual Studio and other products, and how to redesign a number of workflow models as state machines instead.
Security within SharePoint has become top priority through the various events that have been seen in the news recently. SharePoint is as secure as you make it and is available as much or as little as you decide. Microsoft documentation clearly defines how to configure and secure your environment, yet there are still many environments that are available for the world to see. In this web session we will look at the core decision for any SharePoint solution, Authentication and Authorizing end users. We will discuss the vast array of options with pros and cons for each option.
Despite the rumors of its demise, SharePoint On-Premises is still very much alive and kicking, and it is still critical to architect it for performance. During this session, we walk you through some of the highlights of the content that will be presented in the 'Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices' session that the speaker will present at the European SharePoint Conference in May. Topics discussed are SharePoint infrastructure security, database performance and optimization, server virtualization, and high availability.
Regardless of whether you're coding your own forms in ASP.NET, using InfoPath, or using a third-party product, certain practices make sense when building forms for workflow solutions. The key is to decide what work should be performed by the form and what should be done by the workflow. Thinking about the overall solution rather than only a form is essential, and this webcast will walk you through a recommended scenario of how to do so.

2. Learn how to install SharePoint 2013 using best practices for lowest privilege installations
3. Learn about the installation of workflow server & Office web apps and how they interact with SharePoint 2013

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

4. Why is this presentation important?
• Most content focused on the technical aspects of migration
• Migrations are not so much about the technical act of moving the data
(although very important), but more about the planning that goes into
preparing for the migration
5. This is your technical
migration, i.e. the
physical move of
content and “bits”

6. This is the bulk of your
migration – the planning,
reorganization, and
transformation of your
legacy SharePoint
environment

7. What is migration?
•
Microsoft defines migration as three separate activities:
Move
• Use the procedures for
moving a farm or
components when you
are changing to different
hardware. For example,
use these procedures if
you move to computers
that have faster
processors or larger hard
disks.
•
Migrate
• Use the procedures for
migrating a farm or
components when you
are changing to a
different platform or
operating system. For
example, use these
procedures if you
change from Microsoft
SQL Server 2005 to SQL
Server 2008.
The reality is that a single migration may include
all three concepts
Upgrade
• Use the procedures for
upgrading a farm or
components when you
are changing to a
different version of
Office SharePoint Server
2007.
9. Why migrations are difficult:
Migrations
are phased
Migrations
are iterative
Migrations are
error prone
Migrations are
not the end goal
• How and what you
migrate should not be
determined by the
technology you use – it’s
about matching the needs
and timing of your content
owners and teams. A
migration should be
flexible, moving sites and
content based on end user
needs, not the limitations
of the technology.
• Your planning should not
be limited by the number
of migration attempts you
make, or by the volume of
content being moved. A
healthy migration
recognizes the need to
test the waters, to move
sites, content and
customizations in waves,
allowing users to test and
provide feedback.
• There is no “easy” button
for migration. You can run
a dozen pre-migration
checks and still run into
problems. Admins and end
users do things that are
not “by the book.”
Customizations. Third
party tools. Line of
business applications that
run under the radar.
• Proper planning and
change management
policies will help you to be
successful with your
current and future
migrations. The goals
should be a stable
environment, relevant
metadata, discoverable
content, and happy end
users.

13. A migration is an extensive business analyst activity
• Prior to any system redesign, understand your
environment
goals and purpose:
• What works
• What doesn’t work
• What are the organizational
“must have” requirements
• What are the “nice to
have” features
• Based on these requirements, you need to model out
the “to be” environment
Strategy #1: Understand as-is
and to-be environments
14. Strategy #1: Understand as-is
and to-be environments
• Migration is about transforming
your existing system to meet
operational needs.
• It’s as much about retooling current sites and
content as it is about deploying new
technology
• Don’t just tear down and rebuild if there’s
something to be saved. Understand what you
have to work with, have a vision for what it
should look like, and move the pieces that
should be moved
15. Strategy #2: Conduct proper
capacity planning
• Understand your current environment:
Number of users
Number of sites
Number of site collections
Database size
Geographical needs of your organization
(how many sites, what are their usage patterns)
• Line of business application integration
•
•
•
•
•
16. Strategy #2: Conduct proper
capacity planning
• Think about your future needs:
• User growth
• Estimates on site creation
• Estimates on database growth
• Security and Search needs
18. Strategy #3: Understand the
customizations on your source system
• Pre-Upgrade Check provides some of the analysis:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Searches content sources and start addresses
Outlines Office Server topology
Identifies servers in the current farm
Lists SharePoint version and list of components running in the farm
Outlines supported upgrade types
Provides Site Definition and Feature information
Details language pack information
Identifies Alternate Access Mappings that will need to be recreated
Outlines Customized List Views (these will not be upgraded)
Outlines Customized Field Types (these will not be upgraded)
Identifies WSS Search topology
Provides list of Content Databases and SQL server location
Joel Oleson, SharePoint 2010: Best Practices to Upgrade and Migrate
19. Strategy #3: Understand the
customizations on your source system
• What kinds of customizations are on your source system?
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
UI design
Web parts
Workflows
Line of business applications
3rd party tools
Custom features
Site definitions
Field types
Custom SharePoint solutions
Any changes to the file system on your SharePoint servers
• Pre-Upgrade Check provides some of the analysis
• How many of those customizations are
outside of the SharePoint framework?
• Are there any customizations which can
be replaced by out-of-the-box functionality?
20. Strategy #4:
Understand the migration schedule
•
What are the business drivers, not just the
technology drivers?
•
•
•
Cost
Time
Resources/People
•
Do you have a defined project methodology?
•
How long per phase, what is moved,
what are the priorities?
•
The schedule should be defined only after you understand the future state, set
priorities, and get management buy-in.
•
In short, what is the scope?
21. Strategy #5:
Plan for the right kind of migration
• Does the migration plan include content, sites, metadata,
and/or solutions?
• Each one brings with it a set of requirements and decisions
• What is the end goal? Is it a straight dump of everything, and
you’ll clean up later, or do you need to restructure?
• Is your strategy the same for various organizations, different
site collections, or farms?
22. Strategy #6:
Plan for file shares
• Most file shares have become a dumping ground.
• Is the plan to move
as-is and
decommission old
systems, or is this a
clean up process?
• Are users driving, or is it an administrative effort?
• Are you planning to apply metadata and taxonomy?
23. Strategy #6:
Plan for file shares
• Understand what is
out there
• Who owns the content?
• Does it need to be moved?
• Does it need to be
indexed/searchable?
• Is the folder structure important?
• Do you need to maintain historic metadata?
24. Strategy #6:
Plan for file shares
• Users generally have three options:
• Move content, as-is, into SharePoint and clean up there
• Clean and organize content first, then move to a new structure in SharePoint
• Migrate content in waves, using the iterations to sort through and organize your content
while in transit, moving some content as-is, reorganizing and transforming others
• To be honest, option 3 is very difficult to manage in
SharePoint, but 3rd party tools do a great job here
25. Strategy #7: Plan for tagging,
metadata, and taxonomy
Common Migraines
Ad-hoc content migration leads to junk in portal
Legacy content gets migrated slowly, if at all
Inconsistent taxonomy across farms and site collections
People author locally - multiplies problems globally
Authors don’t apply metadata= “shotgun” approach to search OR Authors
apply metadata without common classification = better search, but worse
authoring experience
• Portal lacks high fidelity search
• User can’t find the right content
• As a result, poor portal adoption and low user satisfaction
•
•
•
•
•
26. Strategy #7: Plan for tagging,
metadata, and taxonomy
•
What is your broader
strategy for tagging,
metadata and taxonomy?
•
Map out your high level
taxonomy (web applications
and site collections) and
schemas (Content Types)
•
Understand the as-is and tobe, and how it relates to
your metadata

27. Strategy #7: Plan for tagging,
metadata, and taxonomy
• Map out your high level taxonomy (web applications and site
collections) and schemas (Content Types)
• Understand the as-is and to-be, and how it relates to your
metadata
• With Managed Metadata Service in 2010, it is critical that you
set up a governance model to guide this process, or it will
quickly get out of hand
28. Strategy #8: Understand centrally
managed and decentralized environments
CENTRALIZED
• PROS
• Improves consistency
• Reduces metadata duplication
• Easy to update
• Easy to support and train on
• Allows document-level DIP, Workflow,
Information Policies, and document templates
• CONS
• Requires planning
• Requires upfront work
• Hard to manage across site collections and
portals
DECENTRALIZED
• PROS
• Requires no planning
• Requires little upfront effort
• Works across site collections and portals
• CONS
• Decreases consistency
• Increases metadata duplication
• Hard to update
• Hard to support and train on
• Only allows list-level Workflow, Information
Policies and document templates
• Difficult to reverse
29. Strategy #8: Understand centrally
managed and decentralized environments
• Use of services greatly improves concerns over the
decentralized model:
• Services can be centrally managed
• Sites and Site Collections can consume these services, within certain
boundaries
• You still need to understand the administrative impacts
• You need to clearly define roles and
service owners
• Define your governance model / change control board
30. Strategy #9:
Stage your platform for migration
• Understanding your requirements:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Hardware / software
Network
Virtual environments
Hosting / datacenter
Downtime / end user impacts
Communication
Location of your teams
Backup/recovery
• Coordinate your planning with the operations team
31. Strategy #10:
Decide where and when to involve users
• This is the most fluid of the strategic
considerations, as it really just depends
• At a high-level, end users who participate in the
creation of a system are more likely to accept /
support that system once deployed
32. Strategy #10:
Decide where and when to involve users
• Where end users should be involved:
•
•
•
•
Creation of use cases
Creation of as-is documentation
Prioritization of requirements for to-be environment
They know their content – let them drive
•
•
•
•
File share migrations, or organization
Taxonomy development
Metadata assignment
Signoff on overall project plan
33. • Possible success metrics:
Strategy #11:
Define what success looks like
• Target number of end users migrated
• Target number of sites migrated
• Databases migrated
• File shares migrated and decommissioned
• 2010 live, users able to manually migrate their content
34. Strategy #11:
Define what success looks like
Words of Wisdom:
If you fail to plan, then plan to fail.
Then again…
There is nothing you can’t accomplish
if you put the bar low enough
